Bisquick® can kill you and other fun, but WRONG, facts!
Thursday November 5, 2026 11:10am - 12:10pm EST
People often believe “facts” they hear and read, without ever investigating whether these facts are true. Usually a quick google search or snopes.com can set the record straight. Why are we so gullible? We will examine many newspaper articles, facebook entries, and common myths that go viral to see how data is manipulated and misrepresented.

Tinkering Together: Co-Planning as a Pathway to Stronger HQIM Implementation
Thursday November 5, 2026 1:30pm - 2:30pm EST
What happens when teachers and coaches collaboratively internalize and co-teach HQIM lessons? Participants will experience pieces of a real co-planning, co-teaching, and debrief protocol used to strengthen curriculum implementation, teacher discourse moves, and collective instructional practice. Leave with structures that build lasting teacher capacity beyond the modeled lesson.

Inside the Modeling Cycle: An Immersive Experience for Educators
Thursday November 5, 2026 2:40pm - 3:40pm EST
Roll up your sleeves and join us for an immersive mathematical modeling task that takes you through the full modeling cycle, and explore how we can facilitate it for our students. We'll compare strategies, surface misconceptions, and reflect on how your experience as a learner can shape the way you teach modeling, leaving with practical insights for the classroom.

Hack the Brain: Using Cognitive Science to Build Math Memory that Sticks
Friday November 6, 2026 9:50am - 10:50am EST
Ready to hack the brain? Join us to explore how cognitive science transforms math retention. You’ll experience a "Working Memory Challenge" to see where learning breaks down, then tinker with explicit modeling techniques to reduce load. Finally, we’ll collaborate to design "4-Box Power Mini Sets"—a practical spiral review tool designed to beat the forgetting curve and make math stick!

Busy Isn’t Thinking: Using Classroom Evidence to Coach for Cognitive Lift
Friday November 6, 2026 11:00am - 12:00pm EST
Participants will examine classroom snapshots to determine whether students are simply busy or truly doing the mathematical thinking. Through evidence sorts, case studies, and coaching practice, they will identify where the cognitive lift lives and leave with tools to turn observations into next steps that strengthen discourse, ownership, and reasoning.

Raising the Bar (Model)
Friday November 6, 2026 12:10pm - 1:10pm EST
We often tell students to draw a picture to help them make sense of geometry problems. But what about algebraic ones? We will investigate how to use bar models, often used in elementary school mathematics but overlooked in secondary mathematics, to represent and solve linear word problems.

Supporting Multilingual Students’ Mathematical Participation: Insights for Teachers and Coaches
Friday November 6, 2026 1:20pm - 2:20pm EST
Join this session to think together about how to navigate challenges while supporting multilingual students’ mathematical participation. Participants will engage with four cases of pedagogical challenges that we encountered during a series of video-based coaching sessions. We will also share additional insights and resources for teachers and coaches to support multilingual students’ participation.
